Cosmetic dentistry covers any treatment that improves the appearance of your teeth, gums, or smile. In London, it’s a huge market – from simple whitening to full smile makeovers costing tens of thousands of pounds.
The most common cosmetic treatments are teeth whitening, veneers, composite bonding, Invisalign, and gum contouring. Many practices offer free cosmetic consultations, which is worth taking advantage of before committing to any treatment.
Cosmetic dentistry is entirely private – nothing purely cosmetic is available on the NHS. Prices vary enormously across London, so comparing quotes from two or three practices is always worthwhile. For typical costs, see our London dental cost guide.
